Get a transfer switch and a generator plug in installed at the meter. Safest approach for you and for linemen. Mine is about ten years old Harbor Freight 5KW. It will run the well, HVAC (ground source doesn't take much power), keep us in lights and allow cycling of two refrigerator/freezers and the deep freeze. I wish it was electric start but it's not. Never had to use it but it's nice peace of mind. Lives in the shop but I still run it every year or two with some load on it to keep the windings dry.

I keep a Walther P 22 close for those duties.

nothing solar around here. Battery backup/ups for the computer and a gas powered generator for any extended outages.

He was a great coach and maybe even better announcer. We'll miss him.

Some like it rare.

I've got four boneless skinless mallard breasts marinating in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger and orange juice. Some red potato chunks to boil and butter with parsley. Hot fire getting started in the egg. Hope I haven't forgotten how to sear a duck breast.... Go Chiefs. All my peeps worrying about the Covid - my best wishes to all of you. A dear friend of mine from Nevada is struggling with it right now. Hoping he comes out of it alive. Diabetic and it's rough for him right now. Good thoughts for all.

I've had a lot of Jack Russells. They're hard to keep. Like to roam, hunt and dog fight if they're worth their salt. They need fenced yard and no cats or chickens around. They were bred to get fox in their dens in England and it's still deep in that breed. For a lap dog, you can't beat a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. They're like a bit smaller and a lot smarter Cocker Spaniel.

Big deer no matter when.

Right back atcha'

Well. You do have standards as much as you pretend not to. Good job you old bib wearing to the big party hillbilly.

Isn't it amazing what carving a turkey does to moisturize your hands? We did the family thing Thursday. Today I did a turkey in a Butterball oil less fryer which is actually a roaster. Cooks hot, ten minutes per pound. Has a pan for wood chips or pellets. Apple and beech went in today. Turkey injected with creole butter and heavy rubbed with Lawry's. I always use a thermometer, turkey at 165 and left to rest for an hour or so is about as right as I can do. It's no joke good. Dressing and green bean casserole are in the oven, gravy is ready. Merry Christmas to all my friends, family and the whole wide wonderful world.

People eat oysters. I guarantee mud puppy recipe exists. Yep. Southern Fried Mud Puppies W/Jalapeno Ranch Tartar Sauce #RSC Recipe - Food.com

I don't know a lot about engines, but we had great performance and trouble free long life from the Ford V-10. Not so hot on fuel economy though.

Ads on my screen right now: Garmin Striker Cast GPS; A Staples ad; A Yamaha side by side 4 wheeler ad; A Kaegrell shoe ad; An Academy ad for a ping pong table. Pretty typical assortment. I have never seen anything that even borders on offensive with the ads here.

I am eating the best burger I've ever had right now. Elk burger with pork fat, the elk was young. The meat was light pink like veal. Grilled medium rare, Marty Q sauce on a toasted bun. Picture would not be appropriate.

Nope.

need pics but a guess anyway: Oyster shelf.

10 HP is max on MDC areas. I used mine to get to duck blinds back when that was a big part of my life. Mine was a 9.9 Evinrude.

I think a 16/48 jon with 10 hp plus prop outboard is the river equivalent of an '85 Chevy 4WD extended cab pickup with a 350, no rust and a decent interior. Did it that way for a lot of years and the only regret is the boat and motor are both long gone.

I just drove my 2017 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins to Las Vegas New Mexico and back. Windy as all get out. 19.8 MPG for the 1660 or so miles. No trouble at all so far with the truck @ 90 K miles. All of those semi trucks you see on the road now use DEF. So does farm equipment. Don't be afraid to do something to help your grandchildren breathe some decent air.

You know what it's gonna cost when your wife goes to Kohl's? I doubt it captain. I seriously doubt it. Let alone Zales or the car dealer.

Should have got in trouble for taking care of yourself with the shingles shots. Bet they have them in Clinton and then she should be happy.

I had just turned 65.

As tough as you are, shingles probably should be worried about you.

Let her have a fit but get the shots. You really don't want shingles, especially with all the other stuff you have going on.
